    To rank Witter above Hatton, you would also have to rank Cotto above Mayweather. And the opposition that Hatton has beat at 140 is much greater than Witter has beaten.

      I count ducking when it comes to ranking fighters. to me ducking is worse than a loss cuz a fighter has basically surrendered before the fight even began which is worse than actually getting in the ring with a fighter and than losing. and witter also is the more skilled fighter IMO.

        lol.

        I think Gavin Rees is also underrrated now by many. He was pushing my top 5, couldn't quite give it to him but a lot of people reckon he is a bum. He has only had one top profile fight in his career thus far and he won it with ease, he could turn out to be a very good fighter.

          Mayweather is ducking Cotto to fight DLH (again) so why is he the #1 ranked WW? Hatton has beaten far better fighters than Witter at 140, and Witter has already lost to Judah (lol.)

            In that case Williams is the #1 Welterweight.

              Geeesh, at least let the man defend his FIRST title ONCE, already before you induct him into the HOF.

                yes, i no its really annoying when people say he is a bum when his is still young and trying to get big fights ... you don't know untill he fights someone good with a big name.

                  I wonder who will fight him after he gives Quintana a beatdown?
